American singer Mary Millben alleged that US-based donors opposed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi are funding Abhijeet Dipke and the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), claiming that the money is being used to support activities aimed at disrupting governance in India.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Mary Millben appealed to young Indians to speak out against what she described as attempts to undermine PM Modi’s leadership, urging them to organise and peacefully protest against the CJP.
“To all the beautiful young patriots in India: This is not the time to be silent,” Mary Millben wrote.
She alleged that Abhijeet Dipke and the CJP were receiving funds from donors in the United States who oppose PM Modi and his leadership. Addressing young Indians, she added, “Do not fear, my young patriots.”
Mary Millben claimed that certain US donors follow a pattern of targeting conservative leaders around the world by supporting individuals who could challenge their governments.
“And these select donors have a pattern globally—target conservative global leaders, find a U.S. educated person from the country, radicalize them, send them back to the country, and fund them to start chaos and destruction,” she wrote.
She further alleged that such activities, while not necessarily succeeding in their objectives, had affected the development and governance of countries.
Mary Millben also defended PM Modi’s political record, referring to his 25 years in public life and 12 years as prime minister. She said he had been elected for three consecutive terms and asserted that he would not give in to what she described as disruptive forces originating in the US.
“Your Prime Minister, who has served India for 25 years, 12 years as Prime Minister, elected three consecutive terms, is not going to bow to disruptive forces from my country,” she said in the post.
Calling for young Indians to mobilise, Mary Millben urged them to organise and peacefully protest against what she described as the “disruptive spirit” of the Cockroach Party.
“It is time for a new voice in India, born, raised, educated on the soil of India, to RISE UP, organize, and peacefully protest the disruptive spirit of the Cockroach Party,” she wrote.
She argued that a counter-movement was necessary to protect democratic values and freedom, concluding her appeal with the words, “There should always be a counter movement to uphold democracy and freedom.”
“Rise up, young patriots! Rise up!” she added.

‘US donors will drop you’: American singer says after Dipke hits out at her over CJP’s foreign funding claims – MoneyControl – Oct. 15, 2026
American singer Mary Millben has hit back at Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke after he questioned her remarks alleging that US donors were funding the party to oppose Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
“The truth sets everybody free. Even you. And here’s the truth: these US donors will drop you like a hot cake when you don’t succeed. And you won’t, because lawlessness never wins. Instead, take your U.S. education, talent, and use it for good. Sit down with PM Modi and be a positive voice to advance India. The truth of your courage to do what’s right lies in your next steps,” the singer wrote on X on Wednesday.
Millben also said PM Modi did not need American support, claiming that he had the backing of Indian citizens and would win another term in 2029.
Her remarks came after Dipke questioned why PM Modi was seeking American support to discredit his fellow Indians and challenged the involvement of foreign nationals in India’s internal affairs.
“Why is Modi seeking the support of Americans to discredit his own countrymen? Who gave foreign nationals the right to interfere in India’s internal affairs? We are more than capable of dealing with our own issues. We don’t need outsiders interfering in our country’s affairs,” Dipke wrote on X.
The exchange followed Millben’s earlier allegation that CJP was being funded by US donors opposed to PM Modi. She had urged young Indians to organise and peacefully oppose what she described as the party’s disruptive movement. The funding allegation has not been independently established in the reports cited here.
CJP has been campaigning against the SIR exercise, which involves revising electoral rolls. The protests have brought Dipke and the party into a wider political dispute over the revision process and the role of the Election Commission.
Millben, an American singer and actress who has publicly supported PM Modi, has previously performed India’s national anthem during the prime minister’s 2023 visit to the US.
